Thursday, April 22, 1920 EASTERN CLACKAMAS NEWS Ptge Four April 22. 1920 Public S ch ool M illa g e T a x While pressing the needs of the higher educational institu tions, the News is not unmindful o f another imperative need that o f t h e public school teachers. Unless these a r e better paid there will be not only an alarm ing shortage o f teachers, but those who remain in the profes sion will be o f the poorest quality. An opponent o f the measure in writing io one o f the Portland papers, claimed t h a t teachers were well paid for the number o f school hours, but a capable teach er puts in preparation and study as many hours out o f school if not more, than those in school. Then during the vacation at tendance at some summer school is generally compulsory if effic iency is to be maintained. Good teachers car.not be had in the long run, unless good salaries are paid, as a starved teacher has no life in him, and soon degen erates into a mere automaton, incapable o f imparting either knowledge or enthusiasm to his pupils. An insane man shot and killed a vestryman o f St. George’s Episcopal Church in New York City, last Sunday morning, while the latter was helping take up the offerings. The murderer was apprehended and in his grip w-ere found several pamphlets o f 1. W. W literature. If a man is weak minded a dose of such reading will soon upset his bal ance. It is trying enough for a perfectly sane man, as its ten dency is to excite and inflame passion by lurid descriptions o f w rongs supi>osed to be suffered by the toiling millions at the hands o f the bloated capitalists. Ther° was a remarkably fatal epidemie among grandmothers this week in Portland, and yes terday the undertakers were taxed to their limit. It was co incident that the baseball season opened on that day. The denim brigade evidently met with defeat in Portland, in its offensive against the H. C. L. It could not muster suthvent re serves. Supporters o f the legislative bill to be before the voters at the state election, May 21st. pro viding for the levying o f one sixth o f one mill for the purpose o f erecting and equiping an in dustrial and employment institu tion in Oregon for the blind, are finding that the bill is meeting with general favor throughout the state, because o f its practic ability. If this bill is approved it will provide the means whereby the blind o f Oregon may drop their dépendance on charity. Provis ion is made in the bill for the levying of one twenty-fifth o f a mill in 1921 and each year thereafter for maintaining the institution, which will at all times be operated under the direction o f the state Board o f Control.

President Campbell o f the Uni versity of Oregon, writes con cerning the editorial o f last week on the Educational bills: “ The editorial is a c a p i t a l one, thoroughly sound and direct to the point. It cannot fail to help greatly in assuring votes for the bills. We are much indebted to you, as we are extremely anxious that there will be a favorable vote in Clackamas County. The crisis is so acute that we do not know in which direction to turn in case the bill fails to pass. The students, who are keenly aware o f the situation, are doing everything in their power to help the measure.” ♦ ♦ + ♦ * + A tte n tio n O d d F ellow s The date o f the anniversary celebration at Sandy has been changed to April 24th.
